Cornell University employs consistent procedures for notification and processing mass electronic mailings to the following constituencies: faculty, staff (academic and non-academic), students, and alumni.

Cornell University expects stewards, custodians, and users of institutional administrative data who deploy software or algorithmic programs for encryption to establish procedures ensuring that the university has access to all such records and data.

Cornell University owns and operates its electronic mail (e-mail) infrastructure, which must be managed for the entire university community in a manner that preserves a level of privacy and confidentiality in accordance with relevant laws, regulations, and university policy.
